Chronic Disease Management

Maintaining good control over your chronic disease is something we can do together...

According to the Center for Disease Control and the Center for Managing Chronic Diseases, chronic diseases are medical conditions that can be controlled, but not cured. Nearly two-thirds of Medicare beneficiaries are projected to have two or more chronic diseases. Although a natural part of aging, chronic diseases are the leading cause of death and disability and responsible for almost 85% of healthcare spending. Good control of chronic disease lessens negative impacts. The good news is, KWFPC’s doctors know what to do to help keep you healthy when you need it most. You may be eligible for a service paid for by Medicare called “Chronic Care Management” which provides our clinical team the best opportunity to monitor your health status between office visits.
